Ubiquiti Networks UniFi Express (UX-US)

This is definitely the best tiny access point I have owned. I use these to create a small network for band and tech use at live events and this covers a 200-300 seat room with no issues, it lets me know how many people are connected, and it is tiny. This has plenty of options to configure it for whatever your use case. I can also plug it into another existing network without changing any ip addresses on my existing devices, which has made it really flexible for my specific use case as its in a different environment for every event.

Very straight forward to set up and signal range is great. Really like the online interface for feature adjustment.

Very easy setup, UI is very easy to understand & informative. The price is very worth it. I was worried that no external antennas would lead to connection issues. However the signal reaches through my entire house and works very well maintaining almost full bars of stability everywhere. My only complaint is that there is no ventilation ports so the device gets very hot.

This network gateway is a good quality mess router system that can expand your wi-fi coverage in your home or small business for a reasonable price without the hassle of installing additional cables. I installed two of the devices in my 2400 sf home and one in my home office above the garage. I had some existing cabling that I could use. I particularly like the way the monitoring software that is included specifically identifies each device on the system and its status. This something that was missing from old system which identified most devices as “unknown”. It is comforting to know what is connected and matches with your needs. The setup is fairly straightforward and can be accomplished by most users.

Basic setup is easy, but also provides lots of low-level configuration settings to give you full control of your wireless network.

Upgrading from a Linksys MR8300 router to the Unify Express. Setup was easy, wifi speeds were fine, but the Web/UI for the device is incredibly slow, its real painful trying to set this up in a web browser. On the old router, Kodi Media Center could easily playback videos on a Win11 machine, once installed I could not get playback to work longer than a few minutes, it just stops. Reboot everything (media player, PCs, network switch, etc) and no change. A little research and there are a few things you can do like disable network identification, which defeats the purpose of buying such an advanced device. I had to disconnect and go back to the old Linksys router, which doesn't cripple hardwired network playback.

Small, uses 10 watts of power, has single wan and single lan port. Also doubles as wifi 6 access point and I can control every aspect of my network with ease. Built in VPN, ad-blocking and firewall support.

Works great
